Yes, I have a nforce2 asus a7n8x-vm mobo that works just fine as a
frontend/backend.  Onboard sound and video.  I'm using the analog sound
output with the ALSA 0.9.2 snd-intel8x0 module on Gentoo.

I get a little flicker now and then when watching Myth but no lock-ups.

Other than the form factor I have no idea what other differences there
might be between a deluxe and the vm.

I have two pvr-250s, BTW.
